Patricia
Sprinkle

Born in West Virginia and
growing up in North Carolina, Patricia Sprinkle and her little
sister actually did a lot of the things the kids in her Job's
Corner novels do. (No wonder they sound so real!) She decided
to become a writer in ninth grade, and the year after college
headed to a Scottish Highland village with $750, a portable
typewriter, one suitcase and two coats. Before the money ran
out, she had sold one poem, one article, one short story,
and a one-act-play. She returned to the United States and
eventually met and married her husband, Bob. He encouraged
her to write mysteries, but her first, Murder at Markham,
took 13 years to write!
Patricia has two grown sons and lives with Bob in Atlanta,
close to the southern haunts that inspired her novels. She
says, "Why make up anything I can remember instead?"
